I have had this from new for a few years but haven't worn it more than 5 times so it's as new.
Copied from a 1930's jacket in the levis archives similar to the Einstein jacket but with patch pockets.
The russet goatskin is described as washed and hand buffed, it's the best worn look I have ever seen on a leather jacket, quite understated, just more shine on areas of wear. I believe it's done by hand with newspaper. The buttons look like bakelite but I can't be absolutely sure. There is no lining as per period jackets.
This fits me with room to spare labeled XL I'd say it was a 44.
Measurements.
Pit 24
Arm 24
Shoulder 20
Back 25
Due to the cut the 24 inch arms are plenty long enough (I like long arms)
Asking price 450GBP plus all costs.
Thanks
